Re: Star Wars - flyback suggestions?

Hi Mitchell!

The problem is that the resistance difference on a shorted winding could
be as low as .001 ohms. his is rather difficult to pick up, the Flyback
Testor works by sending a know signal though the flyback and counting
the number of "rings". A good flyback will ring more than a bad one.
This is just the way they are...
